I hated (with a passion) T2 Base. So no, I'm not a "play pure Base" kind of guy. Classic was the best thing to every happen to T2. And yes, when I was a super newbie in T1, I played mods, so I know exactly what you're thinking. However, I have long since moved out of that stage of playing newbie shit mods.
Listen, Shifter newbie. If you don't like being able to spawn in light, no one is forcing you to play the maps. I don't like the overpowered grapple/shield, but I still play TV. Basically it comes down to whether you like playing TV as a whole or not.
You can't really call someone who has also moved out of mods a newbie for having previously played a mod, since you stated in the paragraph above that you use to as well.
I'm suprised people actually listen to what you have to say considering you bitch about everything minus the few occassions when it's something that's changing the game the way you want. Let's see here. In previous Tribes games, it would be an alteration of code that would change what armor (and with what) you spawned... That alteration would be considered a mod. The same change is being done map side, so really, I can see it being a mod. Oh my! This means that our all mightly Val is leaning towards a mod? Looks like you haven't progressed too far from your newbie roots, now have you?

Who gives a shit about a vet tag? I'm looking at you and your team, which is complete newbie shit. I am totally shocked you think I'm going to sit by while a couple of total fucking newbies from Shifter try and mold the way the new maps could be released as. Now stfu and run along, newbie.
I guess you consider every team CO has beaten newbie then? I'd name some of them, but i don't want them to be insulted by your ignorance.
Honestly, i'd like to keep it how it is but that's something that obviously won't happen. Looking realistically at the situation, time is EXACTLY what this pack needs. Why? Because time is in favor of the pack being used. Because people are downloading it, and that took time. People will put it on their server, and that takes time. If it actually comes around to wanting mediums being default spawn again, people will say screw it and decide to just accept they fact they were forced to adapt because the grief to change everything back at that point probably wouldn't be worth it.
If you wanted testing for opinion, you should have asked teams that were going to be playing matches if they'd try playing it on your map, spawning in light.
Honestly, this benefits me more than it hurts me because I play light. I love the idea of not having to worry about my invos, of being able to salvage other peoples stuff, but the game isn't about me, and it isn't about me playing light.
